He has no coalition. He has no real support. No real experience in national politics. Talarico pivoting to the center. Down in the polls. First Dem senator from TX since the 70s??

Aside from the fact that historically Republicans win statewide races in Texas there is not one sign that Paxton is winning. That's it. It's a horrible campaign and it's not going well.

He just came out and said no trannies in girls sports. He's going to win over the middle. Trump is insanely unpopular right now.
The biggest problem with Paxton is that he unseated a boomer neocon only to replace him with... a boomer neocon? What was the point. He made the case for the changing of the guard but offers no change.

The fact that he came out and said that shows that his internal polling likely shows a disaster and he only serves to upset his base. Also lol at needing to say something that milquetoast when no one will actually believe him. Nor does it deal with the underlying issue (that trannies are mentally ill and the majority of people know this, even if they won't state it publicly).
What's more, a lot of the public polling exists simply so that both sides can get donations to flow throw the consultant apparatus. It's just a money making scheme.
And then you combine that with the net migration into Texas of more conservative people (net-net). It becomes hard to see Talarico winning.
It's funny when people say "omg Paxton is such a bad candidate" when the Dems are running this freak. The problem is that they simply cannot nominate a normal person to help their chances.

I don't think he's pivoting because he's losing. He's pivoting because it's good politics. I have no idea if Talarico can actually win or not. But I am sure he's running a better campaign than Paxton is right now. It may not matter in the end but Tally is making the optimal chess moves. Your views here seem like they're coming from a dyed in the wool GOP voter who simply hates democrats no matter what. And there are a boatload of those people in Texas who vote. So it could all be for naught. But in the grand scheme of everything this is Dems best shot ever at a Senate seat in Texas. This is as close as they'll ever come to achieving it. Shit now or get off the pot.

This guy is somehow better than Beto. Beto was a pussy trying to play a tough guy. Tally genuinely is a pussy and he embraces it. He's authentically a faggot.
Also Beto went up against Cruz, Abbott. Powerhouses. Paxton is totally unproven he's an autistic divorced lawyer with 4 phones who bangs GOP groupies and does shady real estate deals. He's a nobody with no experience in national politics.

"he's an autistic divorced lawyer with 4 phones who bangs GOP groupies and does shady real estate deals." - this is much closer to describing someone who would be effective in the US Senate than someone who is "authentically a faggot."
Deeper than that, for Talarico to win, he likely needs to win crossover voters that vote for Abbott as Gov and go Democrat for Senate. I don't think there are that many people who will do that given the fact that Talarico is a faggot who seems straight out of 2022 at this point.

That was before the Pivot. The Science changed, friend. He is becoming more centrist. And people are really, REALLY sick of boomers. Trump is weighing this whole thing down bigly. Iran War was a complete fuck up.
Can you imagine anyone voting for a NEW boomer senator? Not an old one who's been around but a NEW one?

I don't know Rick, because they're weird as fuck. I don't know. I don't watch any left wing news. I have no idea what they're up to. But I think they have a puncher's chance here. It's too close to call.

It will definitely make things worse. But being plunged into an actual hellscape is the only hope there is that people will retake ownership of the country and refuse to be looted further
I don't think that hope will be borne out, but if we're going to be dragged to death behind a car, we should at least take the chance to break free instead of just waiting to die

Yes they will surely insist that the guy they impeached because of his blatant corruption must be the next U.S. Senator representing the state of Texas.

Anyone who used to vote GOP is now moving to the Democrats and hopefully the DSA.. at least anyone with a room temperature or higher IQ.. Republicans will never do s***.. the Democrats might do a little bit anyway

Ted Cruz only beat Beto by 2.5 percent in a midterm year and people genuinely hate Paxton more than Ted Cruz. I would let Ted Cruz into my house. Paxton would try to fuck my daughters in front of me and take my TV.

Paxton would fuck your wife and there would be nothing you could do to stop her from enjoying it. He may disgust us, but his animal magnetism is unmatched.

Google Paxton's face. He is the walking epitome of a sleazeball. Doesn't help that he is a sleazeball who was impeached by his own party, cheated on his wife, caught stealing an expensive pen, spent the 4th of July weekend with his mistress in London instead of campaigning.
The GOP primary base in Texas fucked up and I still have no idea why other than maybe people are right, the GOP primary voters are idiots.

No love lost for John Cornyn he was basically an Obama era Democrat.
The problem with Paxton isn't that he's a sleazeball, it's that he's autistic. Remember when François Mitterand got caught cheating and he said, "Et alors?"
Paxton just needs to own it. He's also very quiet like if someone caught Trump cheating on Melania the next day he'd hold a press conference with a dozen women accusing Obama of being the hidden father of their children. Paxton has no fight in him. Where is this bastard? Stop hiding and get on the horn. Say what you want about Ted Cruz but he goes into the arena and fights like hell. Nothing from the Paxman.

Cornyn would have won reelection handily and helped keep the senate in GOP control. Now Texas is at a good probability of having a Democratic senator and a real chance Abbott also loses because of how unpopular and hated Paxton is and people voting the straight D ticket because they're pissed off at Paxton being on the ballot. GOP primary voters fucked up because they were idiots.
Date: September 10th, 2026 2:55 PM Author: razzmatazz hell
Cornyn sucked brother. Every felled pro Israel GOPe cuck gets us closer to Hitler. Focus on the dream. The 4th Reich is coming but we have to get rid of all the neocons first. Replacing boomer with boomer was never going to work.
Abbott will hang on dummy he's basically the King of Texas.

I could see this mattering more if it were a statewide position instead of a national one. The senate at this point is just a culture war knife fight. And Paxton is far more likely to fight hard for what the right wants (and he did as much as AG during the Biden years).
Meanwhile Talarico is just some freak that says weird shit and looks like Steve Carrell on the 40 Year Old Virgin movie poster.

If Paxton will fight for us why isn't he on social media talking about it? I've read a hundred tweets from Matt Walsh in the last month about the stupid Lindsay Clancy trial and I haven't heard one peep from Paxton about anything. Where is this guy? He is hiding worse than Biden right now. He's hiding in the basement with Sleepy Joe. Republicans are beyond the point of wishful thinking and just hoping a candidate will do something. Where's the proof? I want to believe but I need to see the evidence.
Date: September 10th, 2026 2:48 PM Author: copper spectacular death wish
It's the other half of the story. GOP voters could overlook his problematic past on the grounds that while he is a sleazeball, at least it's his personal life and it's not like Platner in Maine with a history of violence against women. And everyone expects pols to be sleazeballs anyway.
But Paxton has done nothing to campaign. Everyone says he's the laziest campaigner and fundraiser. If he wants to fight this as a war and remind voters it's a war against the Democrats, he's doing nothing about it. He just does....nothing from what I can tell.
Talarico is a weird guy but people will say at least his heart is in decent place and he's kind to people. Whatever that means.

Paxton isn't built for Washington. He's been in Texas his whole life. He's a peacetime consigliere. He's not built for the swamp.
I noticed this too watching Seth Moulton debate Ed Markey. Moulton had way better, fresher ideas but it sounded like he was running for governor, not Senate. Markey you could tell had a deep understanding of the swamp. Some guys are built for national politics, some aren't.

Is this video of Talarico saying there are 6 "sexes" not disqualifying with a critical mass of Texas voters, including previously dem-leaning latinos? Is Paxton paying for ads that just show this on repeat?
Is Talarico’s comment correct? Are there really just six?
While Talarico listed off six chromosomal variations for intersex individuals, there is no single exact count for intersex chromosome variations. In fact, medical and advocacy groups document over 30 to 40 distinct intersex variations overall, and he’s absolutely correct that Republican anti-trans legislation has ignored these variations in order to reinforce a strict binary that excludes anyone who falls outside of “traditional” gender variance.
To be clear, while many people self-identify as either cisgender male or female, there is no single fixed number of genders, as major health, psychological, and sociological organizations view gender as a wide spectrum rather than a strict count.

These "people" need to be sent to a North Korean prison camp.
"Umm ackshually there are 30 different sexes, but also gender and sex aren't related, and um also it's just a vague feeling that can't be described, and um also no physical evidence matters. But still, Talarico isn't being inclusve!"
